The past 2.5 years of challenges and obstacles I faced while building my cleaning business were the best things to ever happen to me!
1. This led me to realise:
-> the high staff turnover challenge in the cleaning business industry
-> the difficulty in finding reliable staff

I didn’t wake up one day and decide to build KleenHire.
I ran a cleaning company from Aug 2022 to Dec 2024.
And if you’ve ever done that, you already know the pain.
Cleaners not showing up.
Last-minute cancellations.
Spending hours chasing people just to fill one job.

After 2 to 3 years of working with investors/partners, here's one thing I have learnt: If the business is your primary source of income for you and your family, build it on your own. Only get partners or investors on a business that isn't your primary source of income. Less mess.

I feel like I’m at a roadblock right now.
I’m at a wall, again.
It feels like I’m back where I was in August 2023, so I want to share the real story. This is the origin of @kleenhire.

Last 3 days of ad testing taught me something important about KleenHire.
I ran Facebook ads to understand our customer acquisition cost.
For cleaners:
• Spent ~$197
• ~$14 per lead
• ~14 website leads
Not bad for testing.
I tested 3 creatives:
• Image ad → 4 website leads (~$15/lead)

A regular social media post is almost like running an ad, even if you have zero followers.
That’s something I just realised.
If you’re new here, I’m building a platform called KleenHire.
KleenHire helps cleaning businesses in Sydney (and soon Australia) find cleaning staff fast.

Three weeks ago, we got our first paying customer.😭
And the crazy part is, we still hadn’t fully launched the platform.
I built KleenHire about five months ago, back in August.

AI can generate drafts, social media posts and videos, then you polish.
That means you can produce 3× more content with fewer hours.
With AI, "I don't have time" isn't an excuse anymore.

Some cleaning businesses are still "hoping" for word of mouth.
Stop hoping, start making word of mouth happen.
